How much hp/tq would you consider the minimum for a daily driver? Think 2 door econobox in major city traffic, NYC, Chicago etc. The significant other and I have been looking at cars and while she's been focusing heavily on mpg I don't want to try to pass someone and step on the gas and have it make noise and continue at the same speed. I've driven a dodge neon 5 years ago that was dangerously slow.
I've been thinking along 130/130 give or take, any comments? This post has been edited by v7guy: Jun 18 2006, 06:06 PM |
